Jazz Ensemble
Frosty the Snowman—arr. Mike Lewis. Simply
one of the best holiday charts this year! It begins
with an easy-going introduction in the rhythm
section, then the tune gets played through once
with a nice swing to it, and then, all the stops
get pulled out for a big band shout sound that
your band will love! There's a surprise ending to
it all too!

Hark, Those Herald Angels Rock—arr. Paul
Clark. The halos come off in this hard-rock
version of the well-known holiday classic that
features effective transitions into and out of the
traditional carol! "Angels with Attitude" is more
like it! This tune features lots of ensemble work,
with all sections getting a chance at the melody.
The solos for any instrument are suggested or
improvised over a simple 2-chord vamp. So
easy to prepare, it's practically "plug and play."
Sure to be a rockin' hit at your holiday concerts!
Highly recommended! Optional reduced
instrumentation.

Have Yourself a Merry Little Christmas—arr.
Victor Lopez. What a gorgeous holiday ballad!
A solo trumpet eases you into the tune, followed
by lush lines in all the sections. This perennial
favorite is right on the money, with very playable
parts, modest ranges and tasty solos for trumpet
and tenor sax. Highly recommended!

4 Here We Come A-Caroling—arr. Paul Clark.
Can't decide whether to do a swing or a rock
chart at your holiday concerts? How about both
styles in the same arrangement? It works great in
this creative version of a well-known carol! There
are no solos and lots of unisons to save rehearsal
time, and the use of both rock and swing styles
provides an opportunity to teach and practice the
difference between the two styles. Very creative
at the easy grade level!

H Hot Chocolate (from "The Polar Express")—
Alan Silvestri/arr. Mike Lewis. From the movie "The
Polar Express," Hot Chocolate is hot stuff! A fun
swinger in a jump style, it's loaded with energy,
based on the original recording and has been skill-
fully adapted for the young player. There are no
solos, the ranges are modest and a driving bass line
makes it move along. To make this chart flexible for
all year, the arranger offers two endings: one with
a clever and effective modulation to a Jingle Bells
quote and one without. Highly recommended!

H My Favorite Things (from "The Sound of
Music")—Richard Rodgers/arr. Paul Murtha.
Equally at home on holiday concerts or any
performance, this popular tune from "The Sound
of Music" is arranged here as a jazz waltz. It
features a relaxed, easy-flowing swing style, a
melody that is passed from section to section,
and short written or ad lib solos for trumpet
and tenor sax. Optional reduced or expanded
instrumentations. Highly recommended!

No L in Swing (Based on The First Noel)—
arr. Mike Story. Based on The First Noel, this is
a very clever jazz waltz treatment (with a little 4/4
thrown in) of this holiday favorite arranged by
Mike Story that swings loose and big! Written-
out solos for alto sax and trumpet as well as easy
ranges and rhythms throughout make this chart
an outstanding choice. A must-have for your
holiday program! Highly recommended!

4 A Rockin' Merry Christmas—arr. Larry Neeck.
This hard-hitting, rock version of Joy to the World
will bring down the house at winter or holiday
concerts. The fully-scored ensemble writing is
well within the capabilities of young players or
will be an instant crowd-pleaser for more mature
players with limited rehearsal time. An optional
solo section includes written solos, and the
chart sounds great even with optional limited
instrumentations. Rock your band and audience
with A Rockin' Merry Christmas!

Santa Baby—arr. Mike Story. One of the

for tenor 1, trumpet 1 and trombone 1, and very
accessible brass ranges, this chart is ideal for
holiday performances. It's a cute tune, a fine
arrangement and it's very easy to rehearse and
play. Highly recommended! Optional reduced or
expanded instrumentations.

Santa Claus Is Coming to Town—arr. Mike
Lewis. Santa's coming to town, and he's swingin'
all the way! Mike Lewis has taken this holiday
chestnut and wrapped it up to fit squarely at the
easy level. Easy swing figures, and effectively
written solos for tenor sax and piano add to the
charm. Nice!

Silent Night—arr. Paul Clark. What a gorgeous
arrangement! Paul Clark arranges Silent Night
exactly the way it should be... as a pretty ballad in
3/4 loaded with luscious chords, a smooth written
solo and a quiet ending that's as pretty as starlight.
Playable with reduced instrumentation and
perfect for younger bands, this tune is so pretty
that advanced bands will appreciate having this
in their folders for that last-minute holiday gig!

Winter Wonderland—arr. Paul Cook. Swinging
just comes naturally in this holiday favorite! The
chart opens with a nice alto sax and trumpet
duet, and things really get cooking with a fun solo
section with the altos and tenors trading fours.
Easy swing rhythms and skillful arranging make
this enjoyable for the whole band. You'll want to
own this.

Ye Jazzy Gentlemen—arr. Peter Blair. Peter
Blair presents a clever adaptation of the familiar
holiday tune God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen for
young jazz ensembles. The style is an easy swing
feel at about 120 bpm, the trumpet 1 range is
to written E top space, there are no solos, and
there's a smooth modulation. This accessible
and well written holiday arrangement is also
playable with optional reduced or expanded
instrumentations.

swing style with the melody traded around from
section to section. No solos are required. Highly
recommended!

H And the Angels Swing!—arr. Paul Clark.
You won't find a better chart for your holiday
or winter concert than this one! A medley that
contains three famous Christmas carols that
have "Angels" in the title, it begins with a medium
swing version of Hark the Herald Angels Sing that
features the whole ensemble. The next section
is Angels from the Realms of Glory which is at
a slower tempo in a ballad style and begins
with a short, written solo by either trombone or
tenor sax. The medley ends with an exciting up
tempo version of Angels We Have Heard on High
that features the whole band. This chart sounds
great, has lots of audience appeal and it's not too
difficult, so it won't take up a lot of your rehearsal
time. Very highly recommended!

Angels We Have Heard on High—arr. Paul
Clark. Here's a sensational new twist on the
favorite carol, with a rock beat! There's one short
open solo section, playable by any horn. This
will sound very impressive with a minimum of
rehearsal time. A great way to "rock the house"
in your holiday performances! Very hip!
